Ground and air search for missing man

People are asked to be on the look out for a 74-year-old man missing in the James Lake area south east of Kelowna.

The man went out to sight his rifle Thursday morning and hasn’t been seen since, with search crews looking for him on the ground and in the air.

“He is driving a silver 2012 Dodge Ram 1500, BC license plate HM3670. He is described as 6’4″, 240 pounds with a medical condition that limits his mobility,” stated a media release from Central Okanagan Search and Rescue, which has had two all-night searches the last three days.

On Wednesday they located the body of a 51-year-old woman near McCullough Lake.

Anyone with information is asked to call 911.
